Chapter 384
Chapter 384: Epic performance.
“Guess, it’s time to go again.”
Blake dashed forward as he took the same approach to get high up before launching himself through the plant wall.
When he burst through, Blake saw 3 of the rocks hurling toward him, but this time he had no plans of retreating.
Lightning needle!
Blake shot out 3 needle-sized lightning bolts at the rocks before conjuring mana walls and using them to abruptly change his direction.
BOOM!
On coming in contact with the lightning needles, the rocks exploded like hand grenades revealing a net made of leaves.
.....
‘Is that all to it?’ Blake asked the system as he continued to dodge all the rocks being shot at him.
[I can sense a lot of mana in the leaf nets, so I guess that they are poisoned.] The system shared its analysis.
‘The sneaky bastard knows my movement is limited once I am airborne. So he is trying to catch me.’ Blake thought as he dodged more of the rocks.
Lightning reinforcement increased his movement speed and reaction by supercharging his muscles and organs, but it was almost useless when he was airborne because his movement came from flamebursts.
‘Although he would eventually run out of mana before me, it is high time I end this.” Blake said as the Mother Tree’s vines were joining the fray.
After dodging 3 more fusion magic rocks, Blake threw out 2 void daggers to the right and left sides of the Mother Tree before opening a spatial corridor and jumping through.
2 spatial tears simultaneously opened up at the sides of the Mother Tree causing Aaron to fire his fusion spells at both.
“All your attempts are futile.” Blake who had activated mind boost jumped out of the left spatial corridor and instantly created 2 spatial tears.
The 1st spatial tear was directly in the path of the fusion rocks, while the 2nd one was directly below him.
‘This is too easy.’
Just as Blake fell into the spatial corridor below, the attacks that had gone through the spatial tear at the right side of the Mother Tree came out of the 1st spatial tear and countered the attack coming for Blake.
“What the fuck?!” Aaron was shocked and confuse at the same time by what he saw, but that was when he looked back at the spatial tear on his left (Blake’s right) And saw Blake flying through.
“Fuck me!” Aaron cursed as he tried to add more defenses to the earth dome, but there was no use because Blake was already beside the earth dome.
“Your Turtle shell can’t save you.” Blake said with an evil grin as he coated his right arm with layers of mana, fire, and lightning before bursting through the earth dome and grabbing Aaron’s head.
Zzzzg! Zzzzg! Zzzzg!
The crackling sound of lightning echoed all around the battlefield as Aaron spasmed till the golden barrier appeared.
“Blake is the winner, and is now the rank 10.” Instructor Zirrack announced.
“What the fuck did I watch!”
“That was a fucking epic performance!”
The entire first-year students on the battlefield went into an uproar after watching Blake’s performance.
Even some of the demoted 2nd-year students like Sach couldn’t help but applaud Blake’s skills.
“Are my eyes playing tricks on me? He let him make all of his preparations, but still ended up beating him without his weapon!” A first-year student screamed.
One may ask why was the battlefield nosier than Blake’s last 2 matches. The reason was that the earth and plant elements were the most defensive elements. So allowing Aaron to prepare all his defenses, and still breaching them with only skills was more than mind-blowing.
[I guess you got the reaction you wanted.] The system said.
The demoted 2nd years had planned to stop losing face to the 1st year students, but Blake’s act had shattered their plans.
He hadn’t used the weapon that they claimed to be the reason for his success, and he had given Aaron the upper hand before demolishing him.
‘I can get addicted to this feeling.’ Blake thought with a fulfilled smile plastered on.
After gathering his void daggers, Blake turned to Serhan with a smirk on his face before leaving the battleground.
By the end of the 3rd week, The 1st year students had shot up in rank.
Blake had moved up to the 9th rank to allow Luciano and Damon to move up to the 5th and 6th rank respectively.
Camilla was current rank 10, Castiel ranked 20, Brian ranked 22, and Tessie rank 30.
...
The weekend had arrived, meaning it was a class-free day for Blake. The problem was that he had no idea of what he should do.
He couldn’t go hunting because the beasts had not repopulated so it would be a waste of time.
The humidifier business was a hit for both nobles and commoners, so he didn’t see the need to rush bringing out a new product.
As for his school activities, Blake was already bored and wanted to do something different.
“I think I have to call Susan and check if there are any missions.” Blake immediately used his adventurer communication amulet and called Susan.
“Hey, Susan!” Blake greeted.

“Adventurer Zero, what a surprise to receive a call from you. How may I be of help?” The blonde receptionist asked with a charming smile on her face.
“I wanted to know if I have gotten any mission requests?” Blake asked.
“Sorry, but there are currently none. The market is quite saturated now so there are not many missions unless I would help you apply for an investigation mission?” Susan suggested
“I thought you said there are not many missions. So how are investigation missions still available?” Blake asked
“Investigation missions are not missions that could be done by just any random adventurer. So they are not usually swarmed after.” Susan explained.
“Alright, how long will it take before I can get a mission?”
“I just have to call the commissioner, am him of your interest. So it would take only a few minutes.” Susan replied.
